R&B/Pop artist Antwan Gladden was born in Austin, Texas, into a military family. He grew up performing in Augusta, Georgia and spent his High School years singing everywhere — from choir to talent shows. He humbly credits his auntie for giving him and his friends the idea to start a music group. “From that day on, I didn't look back and never gave up,” he says proudly.
Throughout the years he’s been apart of multiple groups: Tragik Boyz, Ihussle, and Mtf Cartel. Recently, though, he decided to pursue a solo career actively. “I finally decided to branch off and do my own thing,” he says. “[I] gained enough knowledge over the years, and surrounded myself with [a team of] like-minded individuals to join me on this journey.”
Settling in Austin, Texas, back in 2016, the 28- year-old has released three studio projects, as well as five singles: “With You,” “My Room,” “Heartbreaker,” “Awakening,” and “Prove It .”
“I played back up ... I was trying to be patient and wait for my opportunity,” he says of the years he spent within a group dynamic. “I pursued groups because I grew up in an era where there were a lot of boy bands and R&B groups; I later realized how much that could hold you back as well.”
As he blazes forward with his career, he credits his love for what he does as a driving force. “It helps me express myself when others don't understand,” he notes. “It keeps me sane. I love the whole creative process that's involved ...it's fun for me, and I enjoy doing it.”
